I am Guest Scientist at Hydroclimatic Risks Group, focusing on the hydrological impacts of climate change, capacity building, and stakeholder engagement.
Previously, I led the Green Central Asia Project @ PIK, which is a part of the Green Central Asia Initiative of the Foreign Office of Germany. We aim to bring together climate science and capacity building to ensure a safer future in Central Asia and Afghanistan. Refer to the project page to know more!
I have a Bachelor's in Water Systems Engineering and a Master's in Hydroinformatics and Water Management. In 2018 I completed my PhD at TU Berlin.

My research interests are:
- Hydrological and hydraulic modeling
- sustainable water management and assessment of impacts of climatic change on water resources
- short and mid-term forecasting
- stakeholder engagement and cooperation with end-users
- science-policy transfer
